the Northern Pacltlc Terminal Company,
with the co-operation of the policemen

Burns Hand "With Phosphorus. Rev.
D. A. Thompson, pastor of the gellwood
Presbyterian Church, met with a serious
accident a few days ago, burning his
right hand so severely with phosphorus
that he will be deprived of its use tor
three or four months. He was drawing
a skeleton on the wall of a dark closet
for a Hallowe'en entertainment, using a
stick of phosphorus, which exploded with
loud report and fell to the noor in
several pieces, where they continued to
burn and hiss like small volcanoes, tiev.
Thompson seeing that the building would
catch fire, without stopping to consider
his own injuries, ran for water. lie got
back just In time to extinguish the fire.
He then found that his right hand had
been badly burned by the explosion. All
the fingers were burned nearly to the
bone. A physician dressed the hand, but
the burns have been exceedingly painful.

Vlllanelle ' t...Del 'Acqua
Ellen Beach Yaw.
IT Is sometimes more .difficult to live up
to a reputation than to make It, but
Ellen Beach Yaw had no trouble in es
tablishing her claim to the highest so
prano voice In the world when she ap
peared In concert at the Heilig Theater
last night.. While her voice Is decidedly
unique, and she belongs to a class distinc
tively her own, it Is most pleasing, and
such fine vocalization and phrasing have
seldom been heard. High, pure and bird-
like, her notes come with perfect ease,
and as they ascend the register to a
pitch almost unknown to the human
voice, there is no apparent effort on the
part of the singer and no fear on the part
of the audience that she may not reach
the highest note. She is purely colora
tura, and the high compass of her voice
approaches the marvelous.
The announcement that Miss Yaw would
sing the "Bell Song" from Delibes'
"Lakme" aroused much interest among
the musicians of Portland, but her rendi
tion of it was not quite so pleasing as the
aria from "Travlata." This is not to be
considered as a criticism of her "Bell
Song," however, for she gave it in the
original key, and her work was most ar
tistic. In this, as In all other numbers,
she was most seriouly handicapped by a
poor accompanist, who could neither read
readily, nor play In good time, nor keep
up with the singer. The "Traviata" num
ber was most exquisitely done, her shad
ing and trilling being absolutely birdlike.
The last number, "Vlllanelle," by Del
Acqua, was the moet popular of the clas
sical numbers, and it gave full opportu
nity to her flutelike tones and her well
developed middle register. Charming
simplicity marked her rendition of two
French songs of Stilnt-Saens and Masse
neti and a famous French laughing song,
which she gave as one of her encores,
aroused the enthusiasm of the audience.
Victor Schertzlnger, violinist, was re
ceived with marked favejr by the audi
ence. His fingering and bowing are un
usually delicate, but his somewhat Indis
tinct execution prevented full appreciation
of what was really his best work. Mr.
Schertzinger was called on for several
encores.

TAKES 11 STAND
Consumers' League Believes
Women in Stores Should
Work No Longer.
ANNUAL MEETING HELD
Miss Mary Montgomery Is Re-Elected
President Members Oppose
Night Shopping During
Christmas Season.
Mercantile establishments should not be
exempt from the ten-hour law for women,
frorp the viewpoint of the members of the
Consumers' League, which yesterday aft
ernoon at its annual meeting held at the
Hotel Portland took a stand upon this
question. ' The league pledged itself to
co-operate . with the movement to amend
the law by striking out the clause which
exempts mercantile establishments from
the operations of the statute.
. This recommendation was embodied in
the report of Mrs. M. R. Trumbull, chair
man of the legislative committee, and
was adopted by a unanimous vote. Her
report, which was adopted in its entirety,
also opposed the raising of the age limit
of the child labor law from 14 to 16 years.
She did not believe that there should be
any amendments to this particular stat
ute of child legislation until public senti
ment shall move more vigorously to sus
tain the present age limit of 14 years.
That the Consumers' League has be
come a material force in the community
was shown by the lacge attendance at
the meeting. There are about 140 mem
bers In the organization, and fully three
fourths of them were present yesterday.
They were greatly interested in all the
proceedings, and it was evident that they
are of the type of members who are will
ing and determined to uphold the princi
ples of the organization to which they be
long. Miss Mary Montgomery was re-elected
president. The other officers elected were:
Vice-presidents, Mrs. U. S. G. Marquam,
Miss Martha Hoyt, Mrs. Holt C. Wilson;
recording secretary. Miss Caroline Strong;
corresponding secretary, Miss K. L. Trev
ett; treasurer, M1ss Helen A. Wilson. The
new board of direotors is composed of
Mrs. W. B. Ayer, Mrs. S. M. Blumauer,
Mrs. M. R. Burke, Mrs. E. B. Colwell,
Mrs. Thomas Kerr, Mrs. Helen Ladd Cor
bett, Mrs B. H. Trumbull.
The following honorary vice-presidents
were elected: D. Soils Cohen, A. L. Fra
zer. Rev. H. J. McDevitt, Rev. A. A. Mor
rison, Mrs. H. W. Corbett, Mrs. T. L.
Eliot, Mrs H. D. Green. Mrs. W. J. Hon
eyman, Mrs. James Laldlaw, Mrs. W. 9.
Ladd, Mrs. J. B. Montgomery and Mrs.
R. B. Wilson.
Reports submitted by the various offi
cers told of the splendid work accom
plished by the league during the past
year. Miss Montgomery, the president,
in her report stated that the first efforts
this year of the organization will be to
mitigate if possible the cruel fatigue, as
she termed It, to whicn the saleswomen
and men in the retail stores are sub
jected to preceding Christmas.
She said that now Christmas Is quite
meaningless to them as a festival, and
that the proportion of illness among them
after the holidays Is very large-. She said
that If the public would avoid shopping at
nights not only during the holiday sea
son, but at all times, the practice of
keeping open after hours might be par
tially abolished.
Mrs. E. B. Colwell, a member of the
board of directors, read a report in which
was recited the attempt of the league
to have the retail stores close on Wednes
day afternoons during the Summer
months. She declared that, although the
movement failed in effecting Its end, it
created much favorable public sentiment,
which she believed would be of great aid
when the movement is revived for next
yar.
Bishop Scaddlng made a brief address
before the assemblage, in which he made
the assurance that the league will re
ceive his utmost co-operation in the dif
ferent movements it has undertaken. He
said he had come to Oregon decided to
put his -whole heart and soul into any
agitation that makes for the betterment
of humanity, and that his work is not
limited to the church. He also stated
that it was the duty of all Christian peo
ple to convert their ideals Into grateful
and gracious deeds. Bishop Scadding
spoke with deep earnestness, and the
members of the league believe that in
him they have found a warm friend
whose influence will be felt In their work.
Dr. C. H. Chapman told why a Consum
ers' League is needed in Portland. He
spok pt the overworked employes of the
retail stores during the holiday shopping
season that is now approaching, but dwelt
particularly upon the billboards which dot
the city. He declared that ordinarily
more good could be accomplished by
merely favoring the firms that are deserv
ing. but that in this Instance he did be
lieve that the stores that deface and make
the city hideous by their bold and flaring
advertisements of the billboard variety

Councilman Bennett asked for the senti
ment of the club. He Bald that a propo
sition had been made to divide up the im
provement at Union avenue, and go on
with the nil eastward, and dropping it
west to East Water street. He said that
the street committee is inclined to favor
that plan, simply making repairs to the
elevated roadway between Union avenue
and the river. It was voted that there
should be no compromise in the improve
ment of East Stark, and that the whole
improvement from East Water to East
Seventh street should go forward at once.
Attention was called to the actions of
conductors on cars of the O. W. P. line
on Hawthorne avenue. The statement
was made that they make a practice of
stopping cars 12 and 16 feet from inter
sections, compelling women and children
to get off in the mud. Several instances
were given where thi was done. The
matter was placed in the hands of the
transportation committee.
In MP'' to a question. Councilman
Vaugrfn said that he might introduce an
ordinance requiring brush on vacant lots
to be cut down and removed, but he
hoped that it would not be necessary. He
said that he hoped every neighborhood
would organize and do this without an
ordinance. '

Cash Talks in Great Shape
At Reed-f rencITs Piano Store
The Reed-French Company's daring' proposi
tion to sell a first-class piano at absolute
cost, for cash, brouglit a number of piano
buyers to Sixth and Burnside yesterday.
In two instances people just came in to look, but
the invincible argument of a beautiful piano at about
one-half its usual pr.'ce overcame any doubts the ladies
might have had, and they buy Cable-Nelsons without a
particle of misgivings.
"We have no doubt as to the public response to this
ad. it is as natural -as the laws of gravitation
a magnificent Cable-Nelson Piano for $260 reaches a
climax in piano selling it is an unheard-of propo
sition in the Northwest.
Three carloads to select from all the latest
styles and woods.
